ChatGPT is marketed as a tool to assist with real-world scenarios like looking up information, vacation planning, and other non-fiction scenarios. Why do you find it surprising to find someone may expect to utilize the tool in a non-fiction

Since when does any organization factor in inflation for renewals from vendors?! All the purchase renewal decisions I've been part of have been: 1) Will they budge on renewal rates? 2) Does an alternative vendor exist? 3) Is the increa

Some AI was done tastefully. Apple Photos search comes to mind. I can search for objects across your photos, and it does a reasonable job finding what I want. It's an example of AI that's so well done, the end user doesn't ev

I partially agree. FSD seems fine to me but I wouldn’t buy a second Tesla. Tesla seems to have stopped caring about being a car company that caters to nerds/tech enthusiasts. Mine has been an extremely well done vehicle and I was (and

Why make the assumption that municipalities must treat their internet services as a second-rate utility? Many local governments are competently run. If the internet is out, it's going to be just as visible and probably will yield as ma

The inclusion of the word “already” suggests that someone should have put forth effort to fork this project by now. That’s where I interpreted this as a demand.

Demanding people do free work for you, like starting a fork on your expedited schedule is quite juvenile. Forks take time and effort from humans to maintain.

If we’re going on HN rants, this bizarre tendency of reframing the blatantly obvious into something it isn’t doesn’t help any argument. The messenger isn’t some random, disconnected third party here.
